Scouts lose to Leicester in feisty encounter

Weakened due to holidays etc the Scouts continued to fight till the end of this feisty encounter . The final score did not do justice to how close the game actually was.

Multiple late changes especially to the forwards and sickness on the morning of the game gave rise to early mistakes which were to prove costly against a team who were proficient in their finishing .At times Scouts played at the level we know they can and on occasions looked like they would push on and take control of the game. This however was not to be -Leicester tackled hard and moved the ball quickly throughout -their forwards at times dominating the set plays. Indiscipline continued again to mar the Scouts game and add to the frustration caused by the stop start game that developed. On the day scouts were second best to a good team but to their credit they played hard to the last seconds and showed at times what a good side they can be when they have their focused game heads on.
